It seems DRM has strict rules about what's going thru DRM tree and this one,
while being used only for DRM drivers and been originated as i915 code, in a
stale position right now.

Who can take it, please? (It's Rb by Jani)

I Cc'ed this to Andrew, if he is okay to expedite it, and to Rob, who is the
committer of the original move patch.

Personally to me DRM seems the best match, but... see above.
